Sublime and Ridiculous Songs

Great Noise Ensemble returns to one of its favorite venues, the
Unitarian Universalist Church of Silver Spring, to present a program
which highlights the beauty and expressive range of the human voice.
Sublime and Ridiculous Songs brings together music featuring solo voices
which run the gamut from David Little's profound musings on war and
military life in Soldier Songs to Pablo Neruda's odes to everyday
objects in Arlene Sierra's Neruda Settings while Tom Schnauber ruminates
on childhood in his Not Pooh! songs and Louis Andriessen has a little
fun with Mozart (and Frankenstein!) in M is for Man, Music, Mozart.

"The music on this program is, perhaps, the most challenging and the
most fun that Great Noise Ensemble has yet to take on and provides an
excellent opportunity to feature the human voice," says artistic
director Armando Bayolo. The group features two of its regular members
as well as bringing two new faces in as guest soloists: Monica Szabo
brings her talents to Schnauber's Not Pooh! and baritone Aaron McNeil
takes on selections from David Little's powerful one-man opera Soldier
Songs. Kara Morgan lends her lyrically rich voice to Sierra's Neruda
Settings, and Rachel Barham, whose humor and vim shine in M is for Man,
Music, Mozart.
